scrod, how many more miles will I ride until the zombie apocalypse?

Remove tire, tube, and rim tape. Unscrew nipple with appropriately sized flathead screwdriver.

Hey Scrod,
This might be borderline RG thread so if I should ask in RG let me know. I'm curious about the Cane Creek 110 headset. That 110 year NQA warranty is appealing to me. Is the performance/durability worth the cost? I don't mind shelling out now if I'll have to replace an FSA Orbit or Technoglide 5-10 years down the road. How long does a headset like the Orbit X typically last with moderate use? Thanks. |
I've never had any trouble with the Orbit-X and think it's an amazing headset for the money. I've only had my Cane Creek 110 headset for about a week on my BK so I can't really comment on how it's going to hold up but it's design seems to be pretty damn good and you can't beat that warranty.

This can be done if there isn't enough tension on the spoke, otherwise you will strip the slot on the nipple.
Problems may arise if spokes are a little long, ie poking up a bit into slot. |

Proper size screwdriver should be no problem unless spoke is kinda seized. Spokes take a kinda fatty screwdriver.

what size are the tires you got on your bareknuckle?
|
23
|
How does the ride feel with 23c's? I wanna try out the 23 rim 23 tire thing but I feel like the ride would be too harsh. Right now I'm on 25's.
